Michael Hanake meets the Blair Witch Project in Kim Gok's Exhausted, a vicious kick in the pants to everyone in the audience, all in the name of "style." A man meets a mute woman, and as any reasonable person would do in such a situation, makes her his prostitute. But the pimping is the least of our problems. As we get exhausted by the grainy faux-16mm camerawork, the film gets increasingly deranged. The closest thing we get to a sympathetic character is the pimp, simply because he's got too much self-respect to fuck a mute whore. Everyone else is either a gory mess, or a gory mess in disguise. Even the prostitute, which even a thug like Lars von Trier would make likeable, comes off as a delirious scary woman whose shrieks strike like blows to the jugular.
Kim Gok has seemingly abandoned the Marxist critiques of his short films, going instead for mindless brutality which culminates in an endless bloody freak-show involving, among other things, a pair of scissors going where pairs of scissors should not go. In the middle of the bloodbath, we get an extended long take of the beaten prostitute's near-dead face, but it does not elicit sympathy or pity. In fact, images of the victim only make us shy away in shock. (Indeed, the extended sequence led to continuous walk-outs during the Pusan screening.) The long take invites us to stare, but it assumes we're as sadistic as the victimizer (and the film) is. Meanwhile the sound-effects (mostly a rumbling bassline that shakes the theater) pulsates with pure wickedness. With Hanake, shock creates reflection, which asks that we be critical. Here, we only want to escape. I suppose Exhausted has some virtues; the shots of drilling machines and factories provide a mesmerizing phallic backdrop to the pimp and prostitute's pursuits. But everything else hurts too much. At least Kim Ki-duk lets us breathe. Exhausted makes Bad Guy look like Lady and the Tramp. (asiaarts.ucla.edu)
我也不清楚小时候特别爱看动画片的我为什么没看过这部动画片。看片明以为是个框架很大的故事，没想到是个格局很小的一个故事。剧情很简单，一句话就能概括：小孩除妖的故事。故事适合全年龄段观看。袁公简直就是中国的普罗米修斯，相比于师父的大格局心态，天庭玉帝却是小心眼。直接表达了上层阶级对下层阶级对于资源的封杀与统治，这种改编对于权威的辛辣讽刺非常大胆。同时影片还讽刺了普通百姓的封建迷信、官场的利益熏心和愚昧贪心的皇帝。而且本片对于反派角色的描写比主角还要多，还要丰富和立体。反派一伙人的戏份明显比蛋生要多。美术很棒，水墨画风格现在看也很美。配乐也是一流的，而配音演员则是非常强大的阵容。这才是纯正的中国特色的动画电影。由于我没有这片的童年情怀，所以我只能给四颗星。毕竟现在看来多少有些过时了。8分。
番长摘下面具后 我在心里大喊：我又初恋了！
美术和配乐很厉害，最后百鸟朝凤、龙争虎斗的场景特别美，不同角色落泪的场景都很动人。但可能小时候没看过这部，也没啥情怀。#siff2019# 13 @ 美琪
这么早就有full-length了啊，现在国内做动画的都干嘛吃的啊
多少次没能看到下集！电视和连环画都没有下集，很多年后才在网上看到后半部分的故事
如果袁公没有盗天书下凡，那三只狐狸是不是就只是普通的狐狸，也没法危害人间了？是不是也就不会有蛋生出世，为民除害了？
1983年的神作。89分钟，王树忱 / 钱运达，编剧有包蕾。中国的巫术、神话、侠义，西洋的基督精神，希腊悲剧的机械降神，画风上善恶符合一望而知的古典审美。配音阵容强大。
能感受到制作非常用心，因为年代比较远，以为不会有什么共鸣，没想到最后结尾部分破防，让我想到自己的师傅。
啥时演，啥时必看的动画片，咱们啥时还有如此经典的国产动画片可以无限回味~~~
老一辈儿的这点好东西，现在可真是一点儿都没留下。
以前隐隐约约看过，终于在电影院看了一次。（修复版的人物和背景割裂太厉害了了）
“你是蛋生的，所以叫蛋生~”
ps.这部节奏很赞！值得学习
求求了，国产动漫按照这个标准来吧，照着抄也行啊。
美影厂的制作和老艺术家一级棒！！！
国产动画片里的经典，百看不厌。让现在的动画制作者汗颜。看了这个才知道，技术不是一部好片子的保障。看看人SOUTH PARK 不照样好看
狐狸成精盗天书，猥琐和尚俏仙姑，民脂民膏聚宝盆，权色暴毙抓交替，飞虎吃人逗皇帝；一次失败的BBC中外合作让众艺术家放开了手脚玩，个中隐喻讽刺远高于当下动画
虽然是口号式的闪回，但是看的时候就一直一直哭……就是又很离谱，又很好看……
以后再也不会有这样的国产动画了。官方，不管是人间还是仙界，都混蛋。百姓可爱，但又愚昧。依靠反思的仙人和蛋解救世界的幻想。
小时候看过，画得很精致，记得仙法要用于人间，为人类谋幸福，还要当心被坏人利用。
